International Classification:
H01M 616
US Classification:
429326, 429339
Abstract:
The invention provides an electrochemical cell having an electrolyte which comprises a solute, a solvent, and an additive. The additive is a dialkylamide. The dialkylamide lessens the extent of decomposition of the solute, which is a lithium salt. The ionic species of the lithium salt are thereby preserved. The additive also prevents damage to active material by absorbing excess charge energy below the breakdown potential of the active material.

Abstract:
Anodes, cathodes, and/or solid electrolytes (or separator layers) of an electrochemical cell can be fabricated from aqueous compositions containing monomers and/or polymers. In one formulation, the aqueous composition contains binding materials that are polymerized and crosslinked. In a second formulation, the composition is a latex having as aqueous phase and a solid polymer phase. Upon removal of water, the compositions provide a polymeric structure suitable for use as an electrode or solid electrolyte.
Determination Of Corticosteroids In Human Plasma Using Micromass Lc/Ms/Ms
The present invention is directed to a method of detecting a corticosteroid in a sample by adding an internal standard to a sample suspected of containing a corticosteroid; removing interfering compounds from the sample; placing the sample on an HPLC column equilibrated with a NH OAc:MeOH solution and collecting an eluent; and analyzing the eluent of the HPLC column with a MS, wherein if contained in the sample, the corticosteroid forms an adduct that is detected by the MS.

International Classification:
H01M 1040
US Classification:
429197
Abstract:
Non-aqueous solid electrochemical cells with improved performance can be fabricated by employing intercalation based carbon anodes comprising graphite, coke, or mixtures thereof, and an electrolyte having an electrolyte solvent formed of propylene carbonate and 4,5-dichloroethylene carbonate. The cells are particularly suited for low temperature applications.

International Classification:
H01M 614
US Classification:
429197
Abstract:
The subject invention discloses a novel electrolyte for a solid battery system. Specifically, an electrolyte solvent of chlorinated diethyl carbonates demonstrate good electrochemical stability in conjunction with specific anode and cathode materials. When used with a propylene carbonate co-solvent, it reduces or eliminates the decomposition of propylene carbonate during the first cycle. It is appropriate with a variety of electrolyte salts, and especially with LiBF. sub. 4. Chloro-substituted diethyl carbonates also show good high and low temperature performance in electrochemical cells.

Assignee:
Valence Technology, Inc. - Henderson NV
International Classification:
H01M 1040
US Classification:
429197
Abstract:
The invention provides an electrochemical cell which is at least partially charged and which comprises a first electrode having an active material in particle form consisting essentially of at least partially lithiated graphite. The lithiated graphite particles are prepared by chemically or electrochemically inserting lithium ions into the particles prior to assembly of the cell. A second electrode which is a counter electrode to the first electrode has an active material consisting essentially of vanadium oxide.

Evolution of pandemic coronavirus outlines path from animals to humans
"Very much like the original SARS that jumped from bats to civets, or MERS that went from bats to dromedary camels, and then to humans, the progenitor of this pandemic coronavirus underwent evolutionary changes in its genetic material that enabled it to eventually infect humans," said Feng Gao, M.D.
